Chapter 153
The next morning, when Cheng Xue woke up, Li Heng was not around.

Dressed up and out of the house, I saw the child striding in the yard with the corners of his mouth raised, and he was in a happy mood.

You have to start practicing at a young age, and boy's skills are the most solid.

After washing, cut the pork belly bought yesterday into thin slices, put it in a large pot and stir-fry, add enough salt when it is about to come out of the pot, put it in a small dry pot, and keep it to eat slowly.

The eggplant is stewed in the bottom of the pot, and the rice is steamed more, and I am going to make rice flower cakes in the afternoon, and I will take it with me on the road tomorrow.

Before going to bed last night, Li Heng told her that the Pang family had a five-year-old girl.Thinking of making more and sending some over there.

Although she had the "life-saving grace", she didn't want to "repay the favor".

Spread the steamed rice on the curtain, then fasten the fine mesh, and wait for it to dry.

The sun is shining today, probably around noon.

Take advantage of this time to take Li Heng to the dry goods store, buy some raisins and walnut kernels, and go to the grocery store to buy soybean oil.

After returning home, Li Heng helped with the busy work. In less than an hour, he made two big square plates.

Move to the warehouse to dry in the shade, cut into small pieces when it is half cool, put some on a plate, and take Li Heng to visit.

When I was shopping, I asked the clerk about "Tengfei Academy", but I didn't expect that this academy is equivalent to a modern provincial key university.

Every time in the township examination, Tengfei Academy takes up more than half of the candidates, and Mr. Pang is the treasure of the town.It is said that many students tried to find ways to dig doors and steal holes in order to get into his school.

Speaking of which, she always complained that God didn't give her the halo of being the protagonist, but now she knew that she was wrong to blame God.

Saving people casually can be a benefit, if it is said that there is no halo, who would believe it?
When the couple came to the door, Li Heng stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Not long after, a childish voice came——

"Who?"

"My name is Li Heng. I'm your neighbor. I'm here to find Grandpa Pang."

The little girl didn't respond, and the mother and daughter waited at the door.

After a while, hurried footsteps came from the yard.

"Yao'er is really naughty, how can you let the guests wait outside, where did you learn the rules?"

While speaking, Mr. Pang opened the courtyard door, turned sideways with a smile and said:

"Come in, why do you want to come here?"

Cheng Xue stood at the door with a smile, did not enter the courtyard, offered the plate with both hands, and said:

"I'll make some rice flower cakes and bring them here for your family to try."

There are walnut kernels and raisins on each piece of rice flower cake, Mr. Pang let out an "ouch" and said:
"It's so expensive, what can you give us. If you want to give a gift, I have to give it to you. You are my lifesaver."

"Don't mention it again, Mr. Pang. It was just a matter of little effort yesterday. This is not done on purpose. We will return to the village tomorrow morning and make some rice flower cakes to satisfy our hunger on the way. I will send you a few by the way, which is also considered recognition."

"Come in, come in, don't rush to go, sit in the room for a while. Don't you say you want to take the provincial examination? Why are you leaving tomorrow?"

"Come here early to clean up the house, so as not to be busy when the whole family comes. It is agreed that we will stay for two days. His father should be anxious if he stays too long."

After Cheng Xue explained, she brought Li Heng into the hospital.

The yard here is much larger than hers, and there are also three rooms, but the area here is really not small.

The main room was two bigger than hers, and there was no threshold. Just when she was wondering, an old lady in a wooden wheelchair came over, and Cheng Xue finally understood why the old man went out to open the door.

"Little lady is here. I heard from the old man that if it wasn't for you yesterday, he would have explained it. Thank you." Mrs. Pang took Cheng Xue's hand and thanked him warmly.

Cheng Xue is a doctor herself, seeing her in a wheelchair, she immediately suffered from an occupational disease.

Squatting down and touching the calf, the atrophy is very serious, it should be some years old.

"Thank you, little lady, my leg is not going to get better. I fell off the city gate, and it's not bad if I can save my life." The old lady Pang was in a good mood, and she didn't feel sorry for herself.

Cheng Xue realized that she was abrupt, and hurriedly got up to apologize:

"I'm sorry, old lady, I was too reckless."

"It's okay, it's okay, you know medicine, it's normal to see me like this." Mrs. Pang held her hand with a friendly face.

If Cheng Xue turned her head at this moment, she would be able to see old man Pang's expression of shock.

You must know that my wife has been withdrawn since the fall and has never been enthusiastic about others. What's wrong today?

"I haven't asked my little lady, what's your last name?"

"My husband's family name is Li, and my maiden name is Yu. I'm from Wanghe Village, Pingyang County."

"Oh, the surname is Yu. The ancestral home is Wanghe Village?"

"Yes." Cheng Xue nodded.

When Mrs. Pang saw her confirmation, she lost the enthusiasm she had just had.

Picking up the rice crackers she made, she bit her mouth, nodded, and said perfunctorily:
"It's delicious, you're good at cooking."

Uh……

The contrast between front and back is too great, it is too big to be overwhelmed.

Mr. Pang saw his daughter-in-law's impatience, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said:
"Miss Li, you sit down first, I will push her to rest in the room, probably her leg hurts."

Seeing that he was looking for trouble, Cheng Xue stood up wisely, and took Li Heng away without staying too long.

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, seeing that Mr. Pang was still trying to persuade him to stay, Cheng Xuetian smiled and said:
"Old Pang, we will be here for a long time. In two days, my husband will come, and he will come to your house to pick up the dishes."

With a simple sentence, Mr. Pang immediately understood her intentions, stroked his beard and nodded and smiled.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your man to pick up the plate at home."

Watching the two of them leave, Mrs. Pang told Pang Yao to go to the study to practice five big characters, and then opened the door to enter the room with a bad complexion.

"What's the matter with you today? I've said it all, you don't want to see it, you can see it, why are you so enthusiastic when you come out, and then become indifferent."

The old lady Pang, whose back was lying on the kang, didn't turn over, but let out a muffled "um" and didn't speak.

Mr. Pang sighed and sat down sideways.

"What's the matter with you? Let's not talk about it. Don't hold back any unhappiness. You have to say it all."

Mrs. Pang still closed her eyes and said nothing. It is useless to talk about such things, let alone people admit it.

The old couple was at a stalemate here, and Cheng Xue and Li Heng started packing their things when they got home.

There is not much to bring, just the leftover soybean oil from fried rice crackers.She cut the beans into shreds and hung them up in the barn, and the eggplants were cooked in the afternoon, so they are ready to be marinated when they cool down, and the garlic eggplants can be eaten when they come.

Simple and busy for a while, the two of them washed and went to bed on the kang.

After a night of nothing, Cheng Xue woke up the next day, and Li Heng followed suit.

Cheng Xue lit the fire to boil the eggs, and Li Heng folded the quilt to wash.

The mother and daughter have a clear division of labor, and they will clean up at the end of the ugly time.Yin Shichu was waiting at the door, who would have thought that Master Gong would not come.After waiting until Yin Shizheng, Master Gong's carriage still hadn't arrived, and Cheng Xue felt that something was wrong.

"Mother, Uncle Gong...why hasn't he come yet?"

Cheng Xue pursed her lips, her heart beat faster, and a sense of uneasiness arose in an instant.

Could it be that what the man said the day before yesterday was true?Can't Pingyang County come to Liaodong Prefecture?

"Tie Dan, take the things back to the house with the mother, we two go to the gate of the city to ask."
